Indicted Megaupload founder Kim Dotcom has launched a new file-sharing website in a defiant move against the U.S. prosecutors who accuse him of facilitating massive online piracy.

About this Article

New Zealand entrepreneur Kim Dotcom — still wanted by U.S. authorities on allegations of copyright infringement — launched a new online service this week for storing and sharing files. The new Mega service promises user privacy and a generous 50 gigabytes of free storage space — officially for documents and other files you own or are authorized to share.What Mega doesn't promise is a good experience.
